Lube! Lube! More lube! My husband and I are not new to anal play. This is big to begin with at 6.5" in circumference before you inflate. It can inflate up 13" around. Now, the tip at this point is 3" around. So, going slow is a given. This is very hard and it is not pliable at all. The latex around it is soft and pliable. So, once you insert it, you can squeeze the bulb to inflate. It has the release button. It works very fast if you have to remove the air quickly. What concerns me is this: if the tube gets kinked or twisted it won't deflate.

Even though we are not beginners. We are not advanced either. I would say this is for the advance players.

This is slightly flared. It also has two raised ridges at the base to help it from getting lost in the body.

When I open this it had a slight smell of rubber. It is not overwhelming. The latex feels soft and smooth. It has three ripples at the tip. At the base is some vertical ridges that can be felt.

The smooth texture and the rippled tip gives a great realistic feel. However, you can not feel the ridges at the base after insertion.

Phthalate free polyvinyl chloride. In general, PVC is light, water resistant, offers a long life cycle and does not require much maintenance. Sex toys made of PVC are soft and pliable. (Pliable is for the material covering a very hard surface.)

I think this product over all is for advanced users.

I think the design is simple. Sometimes simple works best. I thought that it could have been more tapered. Even with the size, this worked okay for us. The lack of taper made it a little uncomfortable in the beginning. The pump worked well. The release valve works with one hand. It works quickly. For us the size was a little big.

We are not new to anal play. This is not good for beginners. This is for advanced users.

This toy is simple and discreet. It is easy to travel with.

If your serious about anal play this is for you. If your advanced user and want to push the limits this is for you. It is big to begin with, then pump, pump it up.

The taper is not great. I think having a good taper makes things easier in the beginning.

It stimulated my p-spot. I was very happy with it. I can say I was not going to go over board. What bothers me is the air tube gets twisted and won't release the air.. Flexible tubing may not work in the most unlikely times.

The PVC toys should be cleaned with warm water and antibacterial soap. You may also use an absolutely universal solution - a sex toy cleaner. This is very easy to care for. I always store mine in a bag, then in my box out of light.

Silicone based, Water based lube can be used with this toy.

It came in a big brown discreet box and label.

The plug's box was not so discreet. However, you can wrap the box as a gift. You can use it as storage. The toy was wrapped in plastic. All packaging can be recycled. All instruction are printed on the box. The instruction gave very little information. I wish they gave more information with them. What you get is in very fine print.

My hubby and I always use toys three times in ordered to review them. However, This one only was used twice. Now when you inflate this toy it forms a ball at the base. This is very soft. When you are using toys and playing you may not notice everything about what you are using. When we used this the tubing got twisted at the base, along with in the middle of the tubing. We did not notice right away. When my husband went to release the air nothing happened. This made me very, very nervous.
